I agree! This is another way to re-establish the long list of lies they continue to peddle for a buck.

Yep, and try to keep Terri as an icon. Rewrite history and fool the foolish :-)

"The Terri Schiavo Story"

http://www.catholic.net/index.php...

I can't believe the Catholics are believing, let alone selling, these falsehoods and half-truths presented in this "Dog and Phony" production.

They are making fools out of the Catholics Church.

Unchallenged, they will continue to promote the "Schindlers' Script" (their story line).

Yup, I don't think they care about the truth.

Just to keep Terri as a RTL icon and perpetuate the lies. Sad :-(

jeez the booger eaters were generous with the nuts eh? must live a sad life

Why the ROAR about Terri Schiavo and only WHISPERS for thousands of others?

I still would like someone from the Pro-Life, Right-to-Life, or Religious Right organizations to answer this question.

Why the roar about not letting Terri Schiavo have her rights of self-determination and letting her go by the removal of PEG and only soft whispers for the thousands terminal patients in hospices?

It's very simple Walter.

Because the Schindlers took the case to the court of public opinion using RTL sources.

And because they lied.......

Gotta love it :-)

"Four years ago, a young disabled woman was dehydrated by court order, at the command of her estranged husband, while her loving family's offers to take her into their home and care for her without compensation were ignored."

1) Not merely disabled. Neocortically dead. But it plays better if the sheep think she was able to respond. Much more pathetic.

2) At the command of her estranged husband. Now when do courts follow one's commands? When Michael took the case to court he esentially gave up the right to make this decision. He took his chances with the court.

3) Tell me when and how the family offered to take her HOME to care for her without compensation?

And why isn't the story of her grandmother, an elderly disabled woman suffocated to death at the command her her son being told? Is it LESS catholic to tell grandmother's story? What a bunch of utter bullsh!t

Both Bob and Mary Schindler suffocated their mothers (Terri’s grandmothers) to death by disconnecting their respirators. Is that murder? Is this “to err on the side of life?” This is one of many of the Schindlers’ and the Right-To-Lie’s contradictions and hypocrisies.

Yes Walter it's hypocritical and a LIE. So when will the sad stories of Mr & Mrs Schindler putting their respective mothers to death at THEIR request be told?

Oh Svaha, the RTL crowd doesn't want to know how Bob Sr made the decision to disconnect his mother's life support. Just because he said she couldn't live a 'normal' life, whatever that is?

Wonder if he thought Terri lived a 'normal' life?

I can hear Bobby Jr. now with his falsehoods of how this "COULD" have helped Terri Schiavo recover from her "Brain Disability"
The TRUE diagnosis was neocortical death -- Persistent Vegetative State (PVS) but the Schindlers are to iqnorant to understand or they're trying the rewrite history.

And I'd like to take their stories and shove them right down their throats. The ONLY difference between Mrs Schiavo's story and her grandmothers stories is that Mrs Schiavo had benefit of counsel and years of litigation as to what SHE would have wanted, her grandmother's only had their CHILDREN to speak for them (and they ended up the same as Mrs Schiavo). Mr & Mrs Schindler certainly did NOT have their daughter's best interest at heart in my opinion.

They said it themselves. They wanted her alive because she brought them 'joy' when they visited once a month for thee usual 20 minutes.

It wasn't about her for them, it was about themselves, IMHO.

Bobby Schindler Jr. referring to his sister, Terri Schiavo, as someone with brain disability is a falsehood, half-truth, vulgar and offensive. Terri Schiavo’s diagnosis was neocortical death -- Persistent Vegetative State (PVS). Her brain stem was only controlling involuntary functions of her body To add, her body was being kept alive by artificial life support. If Bobby Jr. had visited more than once or twice a year Terri would have “Told” him. Why was Terri “talking” to David Gibbs III but would not talk to Bobby Jr.?

Oh I think they understand. I think that Mary might have gotten confused with all the false hope offered, but somehow I think the rest KNEW Terri's brain was beyond recovery.
